“…Thus, the persistent lack of opportunities for recovery experienced by employees working despite feeling ill, due to their obsession with work, is likely to erode their energy and interfere with their ability to comply with duties deriving from their profession and their family context. Early attempts to explore the impact of presenteeism on work–family conflict indicate that this association could undermine the integrity of employees' health and feed into symptoms of emotional exhaustion (Panari & Simbula, ). To our knowledge, the current study represents the first effort to investigate the role of a psychosocial factor (i.e., managerial support) in buffering the inclination to presenteeism displayed by workaholic employees.…”

The current study examined the mediating effect of presenteeism and moderating effect of managerial support in the relation between workaholism and work-family conflict. A sample of 1065 white-collar employees from an Italian company filled in an online survey and hypotheses were tested using a bootstrapping procedure. Results showed that presenteeism mediated the association between workaholism and work-family conflict. Moreover, the mediating effect of presenteeism was moderated by managerial support: for employees reporting lower levels of support workaholism was stronger related to presenteeism than for those experiencing higher support. Presenteeism, in turn, was related to greater levels of work-family conflict. The present study sheds light into the protective role played by managerial support in preventing workaholic employees from forcing themselves to attend work also when feeling sick. Accordingly, early intervention aimed at buffering the negative association between workaholism and work-family conflict should focus on training managers to develop supportive leadership skills.

“…Emotional exhaustion is another subjective variable that can occur following a decrease in employees' job satisfaction [ 25 , 26 ]. Emotional exhaustion can also be the result of long-term presenteeism [ 27 ]. In this regard, research studies indicate that presenteeism leads to exhaustion and depersonalization and predicts job absence [ 28 ].…”

“…Demerouti et al studied nurses and indicated that presenteeism was a dangerous organizational behavior that could lead to long-term burnout [ 29 ]. This was probably because presenteeism does not give individuals a chance to recover, thereby leading to emotional exhaustion in the long term [ 27 , 29 ].…”

Presenteeism and work ability: development of the Persian version of the Stanford Presenteeism Scale (P-SPS-6) and measurement of its psychometric properties

et al. 2021

Background Presenteeism is recognized in Iran’s hospitals, however little research has been done to understand and tackle the phenomenon because of a lack of valid tools to measure presenteeism. This study aimed to develop a Persian version of the Stanford Presenteeism Scale (SPS-6) and measure its psychometric properties. Another goal was to examine the relationship between presenteeism and work ability using a sample of 250 nurses. Methods The forward–backward translation process and cross-cultural adaptation of the scale were performed according to a standard method. The psychometric properties of the scale were measured using face and content validity, construct validity based on confirmatory factor analysis (CFA), and internal consistency. Work ability score (WAS) was used to assess discriminative validity and examine the relationship between presenteeism and work ability. Measures of Job Satisfaction and Emotional Exhaustion were used to assess convergent validity with the developed presenteeism scale. Results Mean content validity index and content validity ratio were 1 and 0.93 respectively. CFA verified the two-dimensional structure of the scale. Cronbach's alpha was 0.77. There were positive relationships between P-SPS-6 and Job Satisfaction, and P-SPS-6 and WAS. There was a significant negative relationship between P-SPS-6 and Emotional Exhaustion. Conclusion Our findings suggested that the P-SPS-6 had appropriate psychometric properties for studying presenteeism in employees using the Persian language. Given the negative relationship between presenteeism and work ability and the negative consequences associated with it, it is necessary to regularly evaluate this stressor and to emphasize purposeful intervention programs to control or reduce it.

“…Using data from self-report questionnaires, the study found workload and student behavior and employment conditions as determinants of depression and anxiety in teachers (Ferguson et al, 2012). Elsewhere, a study by Panari and Simbula (2016) noted the mediating role played by presenteeism on the relationships with work tasks, work-to-family conflict and emotional exhaustion among Italian schoolteachers. Utilizing a self-report questionnaire, the study surveyed 264 secondary school teachers.…”

This study determined the health profile of faculty and staff at the Adventist University of the Philippines. Using the descriptive research design, a total of 83 respondents participated in the study. Results of the descriptive analysis revealed an overall good health status of the respondents. There were however, few occurrences of poor health profile in terms of high systolic blood pressure (41%), high diastolic blood pressure (31.3%), low back pain (18.1%), asthma (10.8%) and sinusitis (7.2%). Additionally, 38.2% of respondents experienced anxiety and 19.7% experienced sleep disturbance. There was a difference in gender based on waist-to-hip ratio (WHR) finding. Based on the WHR results, more than half (56%) of the female respondents were at high risk (WHR ≥ 0.86) for cardiovascular diseases, while only 3% of the male counterparts had a moderate risk (WHR 0.96-1.0) for cardiovascular and other non-communicable diseases. In fact, none (0%) of the male respondents was at high risk for cardiovascular diseases. Amidst the few occurrences of poor health, the respondents experienced considerable life enjoyment and exhibited high priority for attaining their health goals. Respondents are therefore entreated to engage in healthy lifestyle practices (exercise, healthy eating and stress management), avail for regular check-ups and screenings and access medical services in order to prevent and/or control chronic lifestyle-related diseases.
